Pay less for the nursery you already use.

Making a real difference month to month.

A Workplace Nursery Scheme lets you fund childcare more tax efficiently through work, making a real difference month to month.
How it works

Making childcare more affordable,
through work.

A Workplace Nursery Scheme is a way for working parents to pay for nursery care more tax efficiently through your employer.

Instead of paying nursery fees from take-home pay, you'll benefit from significantly lower monthly childcare fees through pre-tax salary sacrifice. The largest saving we have seen by one parent in one year is over £10,000, so needless to say, it makes a big difference in helping to reduce the overall cost of childcare. Typical savings are between 25% and 33% — the higher your tax bill and the larger your nursery fees, the larger the savings, as your savings come out of your tax bill.

Feel The Benefit administers the scheme on behalf of employers, managing the nursery arrangements, payroll setup and ongoing administration. Your day-to-day childcare remains exactly the same, just paid for in a smarter way.

How the scheme works in practice

Once your employer offers the scheme, you can choose whether to take part. Here is what happens step by step.
1
Your employer offers the scheme
Once your employer has registered with Feel The Benefit, you will be invited to apply online through our secure portal.
2
Fees paid through salary sacrifice
Most commonly, nursery fees are paid through salary sacrifice, which means your gross salary is reduced by an agreed amount before tax and National Insurance are calculated.
3
We coordinate everything
Feel The Benefit works directly with your employer, your chosen Ofsted-registered nursery and you as the authorised employer representative. Everything is set up clearly and transparently.
4
Full transparency throughout
You receive full explanations of how your pay is affected and what to consider before joining. If your circumstances change, adjustments can usually be reviewed.
5
Your childcare stays the same
Your day-to-day childcare remains unchanged. The scheme simply changes how those fees are paid, making them significantly more affordable.

Why it matters

Real financial benefits
for working parents.

For many families, childcare is one of the largest monthly expenses. This scheme is designed to make that cost more manageable.

Lower childcare costs
By reducing Income Tax and National Insurance on nursery fees, many employees see meaningful monthly savings compared to paying fees directly.
More value from your salary
More of your earnings go towards care rather than tax, helping your money stretch further each month and can bring your salary to the threshold that allows you to receive Child Benefit.
No caps on savings
Unlike some government-run schemes, there is no fixed limit on how much childcare you can fund. The level of benefit depends on your salary and nursery fees.
Simple and transparent
You can clearly see how the scheme works, how it affects your pay and what the potential savings could be before making a decision.
Support when it matters most
The scheme is designed to support working parents during a demanding stage of life, helping ease financial pressure while balancing work and family.
